Default 9 weeks post op
after getting so much grief from my doctor i started doubting my weight loss. But after the pics today I can totally see a difference. I have already seen a difference. But i walked 2 miles on the golf course, up hills and loving it all. Just wanted to share my pre op and post op and see if you guys see a difference already too.

the ones inside are the pre op... day of surgery

The one outside is today 9 weeks post op.

I can see the difference. I think you should continue to take pics by that door so you can see how much you shrink each time.

Congrats on your wonderful success. Why is it always hardest for the person who had the surgery to notice the difference? i still have a hard time with it- and I had surgery way back a long, long time ago and have lost over 200 pounds. I guess we just are so accustomed to seeing ourselves in a larger(possibly negative(?)view) that it can be hard to "accept" our new look.
You are doing a fantastic job...
It is very apparent by your photo..
Enjoy you new active life..

You look great Heather, don't even sweat the docs visit. Remember we all lose at our own pace and trying to compare against others will only discourage you.
